What is your worst hand? The hand that you feel you can't win with.

I'm not saying 2-7o, but what hand do you see and cringe knowing its gonna cost you money. Mine is AQ whether its suited or not.

QJo, almost never wins, I play it virtually every time.

TT since there is almost always an overcard on the flop and it is very difficult to play.

Pocket 8's. Just an endless ugliness to it.

99. I always get killed with this hand...

Me too lately. Prior to that it was AJo

AQ is the worst hand one can be dealt.

Also, I think a K flops 80% of the time i have AQ.

AK (suited or not).

I don't exactly cringe when I get it, but if I get it during a tournament, I know I'm a goner. Most of the time I want to take the pot down pre-flop and I push in with it and lose the race, or in the case of the WSOP satellites, I lose to AQ. (twice).

I don't have any hands like this.

When I get two cards I just play them the best way I deem possible.

Having hands that you feel are 'bad luck' for you or that you almost cringe to get is just counter-productive imo.
and I really don't have any hands that I notice I lose any more or less with.

Couple of exceptions....obviously if you lose a handful of AA's or KK's those are going to tend to stick out in your mind for a little bit.

I do have a good-luck hand or two I supposed. I caught a suck-out with 33 that got me to the WSOP so I do notice when I get that in tournament play. (I know this is a thread about 'bad luck' hands...I'm just mentioning the 'good luck' hand to point out that I am perfectly aware of a bit of hypcrociy in my philosophy)
